Is JKR here?

[hipsterfunk]

JKR, are you here?

I'm listening to the Dublin murder squad books and I've gone through the Jackson Brodie ones. They're both good and I wouldn't have looked at them if I wasn't searching "crime books like strike with a will they won't they" so JKR also helping fellow female authors out.

I really hope so, the woman is fearless and I bloody love her!

Thank you Joanne :)
Thank you.

Thank you, I’ll give them a go.

@PaintDiagram :
I’ve wanted to write to her for a while but I guess she’s got no PO Box.

When I was still in school in the early 1980s, I wrote to a British author whose autobiography I loved. I looked up the original British publisher in the book and wrote a letter via the publisher (with an incomplete address like ABC Publishers, XYZ Town, UK). It took a while, but I got an answer :-).

Not a fan.

Although haven't read her latest book!

I'm sure she's on here too. I think she name changes.

Sometimes there are posters who write ordinary posts beautifully and I wonder.

Her twitter posts show, for me, that she's on here. Some of the things she writes are very similar to points made on threads on here.

Joanne Rowling, keep going. The world is waking up to the harms to women and children and you are providing a voice that can be heard x

I was going to start a thread about this article, and then thought no, a bit fanziny, but this thread gives me a perfect excuse.

From last week's sunday times.

An elephant is actually perfect.
Elephants are fierce, protective, and have a very, very long memory.

She'll be gutted.

And she wrote Harry Potter in The Elephant House.

I sent an email to her after she wrote her essay, thanking her for her courage in standing up for females, and got a lovely reply from an assistant.

knock once for yes and twice for no

@TinselAngel That's so random, of course she won't 😂

Superb JKR post on X at 4:45pm today

@Bumblebee907 the joke is on you.

Hi Joanne! If you're here, I just want to say I love HP and I love the Strike novels. I don't even like detective/whodunit stuff but I gave Strike a go and I've become hooked and obsessed! Pat is amazing. Robin is so relatable for me as well as an inspiration.

And as a mother with a daughter who was affirmed in secret by her school and her dad, (my abuser) at age 12, and now estranged because I said no... I cannot thank you enough for speaking up on behalf of mothers like me who have been left bereft.

It's not MrsTerryPratchett is it?

I always enjoy her intelligent, insightful and often humorous posts, whoever she is 🙂

I wasn't thinking about Mrs Terry P. I'm going to be annoying and not say who I think may be JKR because its not fair to that poster., but I have my suspicions.

🙄 😂 Deep.

If jk is, and this is a wild ask, but could you tell me your foundation? I struggle to find the shade of ghost white I need, everything, even the most ivory of ivory goes orange on me and I'm getting well sick of my airhostess from the 90s orange face.
If you could help a pale sister out jk, I'd appreciate it 😊

I’m not JKR but as someone who makes a glass of milk look tanned I recommend Il Makiage.
